In 1899, the United States Department of War conducted a census of Puerto Rico finding that the population of Nuevo barrio was 1,081.

Hurricane Maria


After Hurricane Maria struck the island of Puerto Rico, residents of Nuevo barrio waited 7 to 8 months to have electrical power restored. Several landslides affected this barrio along PR-5. Work was completed with FEMA funds in October 2021 to stabilize and make the highway safe.
